Hello my dear visitors and welcome. So pleased you came for a visit.
Well, another fortnight has flown past and it's time for a new Challenge at Crafty Cardmakers.
Mary is our lovely host and the Theme is Easter.
As always, you may create whatever your heart desires as long as it fits the Easter Theme.
For this Challenge, I have chosen to create a slim tag.
The paper I have used for my substrate is from a 6.5" x 6.5" pad by Kaisercraft. The Collection is called Wandering Ivy.
I adhered the paper onto a piece of thin card for extra stability and then used a stencil to pop on some texture paste.
I then added a couple of diecuts for a bit more interest, followed by the lace and flowers
The graphic is a free printable from the net. I cut it to size, edged it with gold border stickers and then tucked it in beside the flowers using dimensional tape.
To finish off, some prills and micro beads.
Simple, but I really love how this turned out.
Do pop on over to the CCM blog and see the wonderful creations by the rest of the Team. I'm sure you will feel inspired to join in the Challenge.
Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #231 - Easter.
A little early perhaps for an Easter message but, on second thought, there is never really a wrong time for this ..
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life .. John 3:16.
Thank you so much for stopping by and a special thank you to those who leave me a lovely comment to read. I really appreciate it.
Take care and God Bless
